Determination of potential dermal and inhalation operator exposure to malathion in greenhouses with the whole body dosimetry method.
One of the steps during the authorization process of plant protection products (PPP) in the European Union is to evaluate the safety of the operator. For this purpose, information on the probable levels of operator exposure during the proposed uses of the PPP is required. These levels can be estimated by using existing mathematical models or from field study data. However, the existing models h...
متن کاملPotential Health Effects Associated with Dermal Exposure to Occupational Chemicals
There are a large number of workers in the United States, spanning a variety of occupational industries and sectors, who are potentially exposed to chemicals that can be absorbed through the skin. Occupational skin exposures can result in numerous diseases that can adversely affect an individual's health and capacity to perform at work. In general, there are three types of chemical-skin interac...
متن کاملUsing consumer electronic devices to estimate whole-body vibration exposure.
The cost and complexity of commercially available devices for measuring whole-body vibration is a barrier to the systematic collection of the information required to manage this hazard at workplaces. The potential for a consumer electronic device to be used to estimate whole-body vibration was assessed by use of an accelerometer calibrator, and by collecting 42 simultaneous pairs of measurement...
متن کاملChemical and biochemical dosimetry of exposure to genotoxic chemicals.
Epidemiologic studies designed to evaluate the health significance of environmental chemicals are compromised by the lack of quantitative exposure data for individuals in exposed populations. Monitoring data on levels of compounds in environmental media often represent the only information available, and average population exposure is therefore the only quantitative parameter that can be calcul...
متن کاملChemical Dosimetry inBiological Monitoring of Exposure to Toxic Chemicals
Biological monitoring of exposure to chemicals has the objective of defining the so-called 'internal dose' or 'internal exposure level', and has been attempted by a variety of experimental approaches. Two categorical types of measurements can be made for this purpose: (1) measurement of concentrations of chemicals (or their metabolites) in body fluids or excreta; or (2) measurement of toxicolog...
